    Hi fellow truckers,
    Been driving semis 5 years in this area.
    Now thinking about buying my own tractor and move some containers around.
    Does anyone know US Intermodal or Lexington Intermodal in NJ?

    Also, if anyone could run down a typical day for me:
    when you start
    where and how you pick up
    where you typically unload (how far away, small businesses?)
    where you deliver the empty container
    how you get info about container number/paperwork? (do dispatch call or email you?)
    how many containers you can typically move in a day etc.
    what to look out for especially in this line of work, to succeed

    Any info and tips of the trade would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks a lot!

    I'm just curious, have you used the search button? Container threads come up everyday.

    Sorry,
    Didn't consider that.
    I'll give that a shot, too.
    Thanks.
